Okay, let's continue where we left off.
>"You cannot stay?"
>"Memories prevent me and the feeling of loss. Best to wander and see where it takes me anywhere but home for now.""

"If that's what you think then that's what you think, and it is not my place to disabuse you of that notion.
What if I can promise you that you'll have greater strength with us than on your own? What if I tell you wandering is the cowards way out?

You wander out here and slay a warband with your bare hands. Bravo, well and good, but where are your foes now?

You wander out here and slay a warband with your bare hands. Bravo, well and good, but where do you gather your strength now?

You wander out here and slay a warband with your bare hands. Bravo, well and good, now will you keep on running from your memories now?

...You come out here. You slay a warband with your bare hands.
Bravo. Well and good, but what do you think he's experiencing now? Do you think he's such stock as to take your way out? The **coward's** way out?

Do you think he is running away from his memories, from pain and loss, seeking to drown his thoughts in the tidal wave of blood from an entire continent?

No. His journey is different. He goes out from the Deadsnows on a journey of growth. He doesn't seek distraction in his violence, he seeks a chance for fulfillment. He never broke, he hasn't broken, and he will not break. He will come back with all the strength he is capable of, in both body and mind. And he will exploit every weakness you have failed to face.

You go out and slay a warband with your bare hands, and in doing so seek to avoid what you need to show yourself his equal.
Abandon this folly. Your quest lies here with the Bloodsnows if you want to be with him. Where you will face your strongest foes in both mind and body."

>>28290361
"Best strength is what one can find on their trials and journey. Wandering a cowards way out perhaps if I had company it would be so.

Dead.

Myself.

For now.

Who knows, maybe, why not? Its not up for me to decide. I just don't want to be there alone.

who knows I do sorta of doubt it.

HIS equal oh cuban pete why its the other way around. He is seeking to become MY equal.

You DARE claim what I have committed myself is folly?

My 'quest' is what it is and right now it is not with the bloodsnows. I fill face my strongest foes alone as it is when one is solo that ones experiences the greatest difficulty.

Dammit, if you had answered while it was 5am that would've won.

It would of ended the same way.

>>28290726

I don't suppose we can get our heroes advice/analysis at this point before formulating another response?

>>28290750
What heroes did you bring along exactly?

Cause if I remember correctly they have already stated what they thought.

>>28290787

We brought all of them!

Ovah Kil, Cuban Pete, Pyro, Charlie, Warlord

I meant can we get their advice/thoughts in light of what's been said?

>>28290787
We brought everyone, or rather, the big outdoor celebration found her. Dr. Biktal, who can "see things others might miss" has not stated an opinion.

>>28290836

You forget the Dread Witch and the Arms Master. The Witch's advice would be especially helpful, I feel.

>>28290830
Ovah Kil
suggest letting her run wild.

Cuban Pete
states this reminds of the first time she went reaver except she doesn't seem to have a mission in mind.

Pryo
.....burn?

Charlie
Says to let her do whatever as he suspects she never actually went all out before...

Warlord
Give her a goal or mission. Let her cause havoc...in the way that help us the most.

>>28290836
Dr. Bitkha
Her memories haunt her but not in the way you may suspect. After all a girl's heart is funny thing...

Arms Master
States something about tech and equipment. Not sure what he meant exactly.

Dread Witch(damn you for bringing her up)
States that if it was her memories from the bad time then she would of acted out sooner. Yet she only did so when her favorite boy toy went missing on her...

She suspects that its not the memory of the bad times but rather of what she had with her 'lover' that is no more.

>>28290991
>Pryo
>.....burn?

Hmm, that's not the same enthusiasm Torg had. A pity.

>>28291021
You asked what he thought not what we should do anon. Just count yourself lucky you got that much(damn roll/bonus).

>>28290991

Okay, so obviously the Arms Master's advice is the one to go with because it's the one EDE shrouded the most. What Tech/Equipment do we have access to and can we get a clarification from him?

>>28291055
Ha, I don't know that's spiting in the devils face relying on meta tactics. But why not

We really should listen to Dread Witch though, but she's pretty mad and is there a way we can tentatively prod a little bit more into her relationship with the boy?

>>28291097

I was just kidding, thought it'll be lulzy to see what EDE comes up with in response.

Yeah, we need to cross reference Dr. Bitkha's advice with the Dread Witch's advice to come up with the right answer.

Are there any girls in the thread? Calling all girls. How is a girl's heart a funny thing? Please respond, it's important for our imaginary story to succeed.

How did the Fozr crack ALL OF THOSE bunkers open? Shit!

>>28291215
We need to ask them if they can give us the bunkers near the crashed bloody maiden breach. If we're going to dened the compound proper, our 1st line of defense is at the wall breaches.

In any case what is thy plan?

>>28291231
Erm, ah. . .

>>28291229

Asking them for all of those bunkers might be a bit much, but either asking them for the very northwesternmost bunker or to repair that breach would be alright.

>>28291231

.....burn?

Really though...aaaaaaah......uhhhhhmmmmm...........fuck, I lost my "way too little sleep" eloquence.

Let me try to think of something...

>>28291231

"Who were these people you slew?"

>>28291320
>let her go

>talk to her some more
>>28291336
>pick a fight ect.
NOPE

>>28291336
Who cares? If I had to hazard a guess it would be that they were bandits though.

>>28291398

No no, I was trying to lead into something here.

>>28291426

"You said your enemies were dead, did you mean these?"

>>28291469
"These guys no no I just killed these guys for funzies."

>>28291499

"Who were your enemies, did you kill them?"

Someone, heellllppp. EDE doesn't want us to have our hero back and I'm not making any headway. He'll get tired of writing responses soon.

>>28291567
Considering two things.
We prod at her/boy's relationship.
Or
We challenge to a duel
(Well, we'll let you go but not without giving you a farewell fight. For old times sake.) and pray CP wins [highly doubt it]

Continue on friend, I'm considering actions.

>>28291567
Your right about that.

"There are always enemy to kill."

>>28291616
>We prod at her/boy's relationship.
]spoiler]"You know CC, you're making good points. Perhaps this is a journey you must make on your own, but tell us, for old times sake, what does this boy really mean to you? Yes, yes I know the history between you two as much as you do. . .actually, do I?"

Should we cut to the chase?

>>28291695
Not him, but why not. We have a lot to lose and a lot to gain.

>>28291620

"You're just out to wander, you don't know where they are.

Why are you running away from your memories, from your last tie to him? Why are you turning away from your comrades of years, who've died beside you, for you, and under you to pursue strength?

There's no substitute for your love in our number, but have you looked at why being among their number stirs your memories of him so?"

>>28291803
"...because it hurts is why. As for turning away from my comrades you can take care of yourselves there is just some things that need doing. Being among you isn't what stirs them rather its the void of his absence."

>>28291695
"He means everything to me. Not entirely. I never explained how everything all came together but you knew better then to pry about that sort of thing."

I feel so weird writing about a lovestruck crazy teen girl bandit

>>28291910
You can end it at any time with no argument from us by giving her to us.

>>28291955
Never you have to win her over first. Though it seems like your failing pretty hard at that.

>>28292006

Yeah well you don't make this shit easy.

>>28292029
Why do you think my players call me the twisted genie?

In any case to move things around you have lets 25 minutes left. Otherwise CC goes bye bye.

>>28291910

Alright guys, vote on this...it's going to be my last gambit so we can get the tread started...I wonder/hope EDE will give us some sort of bonus for this if we fail so we won't have wasted the bunker-down action and a 100

"I see. You just can't stand to be among the familiar faces that lack one.
You know, I can understand that.
You must go, so that you can learn to let go of the thing you love for a time so it can grow even though you don't want to.
We can understand that.

Go do what you have to do while you learn to live without what you need while he grows stronger.

We'll be here, waiting.

...Oh. If you want, I can hold that letter for you. Where you're going isn't well suited for it.
And if you have any letters of your own, I'll hold those too.

Good luck."

>>28292164
I have no idea what you are going with this, but okay.
In the meantime, do you think we should try to be more active in the winter? Should we practice scouting more?

I'm considering scouting eventually retaking the abandoned bunkers near our original bunkers, since we have peopel familiar there and it would help us hold the compound for when the invasion in summer comes.

We were just saying "Hi", establishing contact, and wondering if they had anything to trade.

Only us and the Fozr have access to vehicle garages, but they obviously wanted to acquire the northwest one.

Anyone feel like scouting+bringing online the DAATS? Whoever was after the Warlord had flyers that could navigate/survive blizzard conditions, think thy might just be waiting for winter to end?

Alternately, we should scout the docks. Maybe we can salvage the power source off of the wrecked pirate ship to boost yhe base's capabilities. We might also consider seeing if we can (after upgrading them) patch our Ultra Bunker's plasma reactors into the base's power grid.

I wonder if it'd be wise to offer bunker upgrades to the Fozr if they'll provide the resources necessary? It'd strengthen the alliance greatly. They still have misgivings/mistrust because we're bandits, probably (they've already worked far more closely with us than i ever expected them to).

>I wonder if it'd be wise to offer bunker upgrades to the Fozr if they'll provide the resources necessary? It'd strengthen the alliance greatly. They still have misgivings/mistrust because we're bandits, probably (they've already worked far more closely with us than i ever expected them to).
I'm wondering how we should go about that in the summer. I was thinking maybe it'd be best to leave their ice forts inconscpicous, try to get enemies not interested in them.

Let's get EDE's input, but I think that it's fairly obvious that they're bunkers/fortifications even under the ice. That aside, they start shooting when someone gets close whether or not their bunkers are inconspicuous so they might as well have big guns to do it with.

Which reminds me, we need to fortify the barracks because we only had zombies there and we could only do so much.

>>28294422
I'm worried about the zombies. We know longer have CC with us and our hold over them isn't like it used to be. Plus they're "in the way of booting the facility".

I don't think they're dumb either if we even try to wittle them down as fodder without the strongest incentive. And we dare not risk losing our neutrality with them.

Is Ovah Kil specifically under the control of BilKil? Do security chief robots usually have AIs separate from the base AI completely, or shackled to it, or what? If we had Ovah Kil design a new limiter that only kept BilKil from doing things against us/our allies (unless he had our permission)...what's the likelihood it'd be enough?
[ask these to our Warlord]

Also, ask him what he meant by our style bunkers being old and usually only in militia outposts?

As for A.I. I am guessing separated but in contact.

Not sure if he would be willing to do that. Limiters create issues no matter how good or lax its just that many see them being in place well worth the price.


Your bunkers are only common among Guard, militia, and older forces. Suffice to say their reliable/sturdy as hell but bit lacking in the newer hi-tech. Except for your ultrabunkers. Those things are something else I tell yah.

"Our forces came under fire while trying to salvage. Luckily they made it to a wreck and brought back some resources. Even better we didn't get lost this time around.

But first, think about it. What did we think about the ice bunkers in the summer?

We left them alone and for good reason, we thought they were scary and full of monsters (and they were to an extent). If we put human works on them, others might not be so disinclined to try and take them.

I'll third or fourth or whatever the proposed action list, it's good to develop the basic tech to de-irradiate things whether or not we can set up a fishery.

Is it primarily radiation that's the problem with the fish? Or other stuff too? If it's other stuff too, change

The warehouse proved to be well looted and trashed....we barely got a single resource there. Arms Master admits that he pities the ghouls when they make their way to it.

Charlie said that the compound has stuffed full of zombies and alert ones too. Cuban Pete meanwhile has contacted a smart zombie there.

Mostly by causing a romba with the dumb ones until one showed up. It worked though.

We started on the armor mods. Luckily the Fozr had just what we needed so we managed to acquire the armor for the depths of sea.

Building proved to be storage unit. Lots of stuff mostly military goods. Suprisingly untouched as well. I am talking the big guns the stuff they can only bring in in big ships.

Dr. Bitkha has begun research on the...details of bandits, ghouls, and zombies relations. She says its going to take a while but SECRET SPECIAL UNLOCKED Pervy Doctor bonus.

She got the human limits down to fine and honestly disturbing art.

Our guys sent into the waters...sorta came screaming out again not long after yelling about giant fish monsters and swarms of fish that could chew through power armor. Marko was noted to have gotten trapped in such a swarm and somehow floated up to the surface. Alive of all things only to be picked up by some wandering ghouls who brought him back to their ship.

Dr. Bitkha admits she just wanted to check out the zombies...but things sorta went overboard. big time. oops.

Seriously though don't go outside I don't know how to but it somehow spread liked a plague among the zombies to encompass the entire island. To think it went from zombies killing each other to fucking. Its like were dealing with the goddamned Krooked almost.

When our guys were off...a glaciar snapped causing a flood sweeping them off into the sea. It also fucked with our fire defenses, but our water got refreshed delicious glacial goodness. Cooks are having fun with the stuff and its mighty refreshing even without.

Moonshot and Dr. Bitkha to gather some of that delicious water glacier goodness as they can.

Good suggestions but...we were told not to go outside so I'm leery of scouting, and we can now operate outside during winter/blizzards so...

it was suggested to use necrophiliacs/stay low.

>>28306356
Or was that a sarcastic jest?

>>28305017
Did that mean outside the compound or specifically outside in general?
Hmm, we'll need to ask EDE for clarification.

>>28306408

I think it meant outside in general. Also, if we can set an entire island of zombies aflutter I think this avenue of research bears more looking into.

>>28306433
Maybe we can get them to all fuck themselves to death by exhaustion

>>28306505

Maybe we can a psionic-sex-deterrence-zombie field that we place in our enemies' bases surreptitiously.

It'll weaken them from within because they won't reproduce. It'll work by having them constantly think of, and be subject to whenever they go outside, grotesque zombie sex scenes.

>>28306578
>>28306505

Or we roll dual-1s and zombies can now reproduce.

>>28306578
>>28306590
Heh.
Do we even have enemies in bases? We don't even know the geography of the island. We've mostly just held our own against monsters and raiders.

The only real enemy I can think of is the old corporation our ancestors came from, the minions of the dark god and himself, and possibly lover boy and whatever army he's gonna bring to challenge us and CC.

>>28306688
Oh, and of course the ede standard SUPER EVIL lurking underground.

>>28306688

We're actually paramilitary descendants, not corporation.

Lover Boy and CC are definitely threats, but we can't possibly predict how they'll be or where they'll come from.

We don't have 'enemies' in the base but we're eminently neutral with the zombies and the borgs.
The borgs might actually lean towards disliking us to the point where if they had more power they'd take us out.
The zombies...are up to something. They're (zombies at large, not necessarily just the ones here) the second most powerful faction on the island so EDE's definitely equipped them with a lot of stuff up their sleeves.

I feel like EDE's going to pick up the raiders now that spring is come and we have a handle on ourselves.
